State of Kansas, Appellee v. Nicholas L. Dupree, Appellant

April 8, 2016304 Kan. 43

Summary

The court affirmed Dupree’s convictions and sentences after rejecting five appellate challenges. It held that the amended statutory speedy-trial provision applied retroactively and eliminated a remedy for the alleged violation, that the peremptory strikes were not shown to be racially discriminatory, and that the voluntariness challenge was unpreserved. The court also upheld admission of the photographs and found no cumulative error.
